Difficulty: cars vs bikes

[D.J.]

Hello!
I was just wondering, 1/12 bikes are pretty cheap, considering how big they are. So because im still a newbie and dont want to screw up another of my models, i have a question. Are bikes harder to built or are they the same as cars? Most of them are lvl 3 but it looks to me that they are pretty more complex. And if they are two-tone then even harder... So...?
Thx

I build both started off with bikes.
Bikes require a lot more patience as you are dealing with a lot more tiny parts - there is more of an emphasis on the construction and decals can be a sweat to get into the curves, But cars require a better airbrushing skill to get the glossy paint job correct.
Everyone should try a bike at some time, they give such a great impression when complete.

as always, if you take your time, it's not any harder.

Bike are really fun to make.. get one and try !
